Polish Mushroom and Sauerkraut Stew
Deep, earthy and satisfyingly savoury, this slow-braised stew brings together tangy sauerkraut and smoky dried forest mushrooms in a rich, amber broth that fills the kitchen with the scent of allspice and bay. It looks wonderfully rustic in the bowl — dark, glossy and hearty. A brilliant cold-weather supper that keeps and reheats beautifully, and is just as good the next day.

Pumpkin Khoresh
Deep amber and fragrant with cinnamon and cardamom, this Persian pumpkin stew layers seared squash, sweet potato and root vegetables in a sweet-sour sauce of tomato, sour golden prunes and lemon — rich enough to feel celebratory, bright enough to keep you coming back for more. It is genuinely good for you too, packed with fibre and slow-release energy from the root vegetables and split peas. Serve it piled over saffron rice on a Friday night with a glass of chilled pomegranate juice alongside.

Scarlet Soft Tofu Stew
A fiercely crimson, bubbling Korean stew that delivers deep heat, funk and umami in every spoonful — silken tofu trembles in a scarlet broth alongside fermented kimchi and meaty mushroom strips. It looks dramatic straight from the stone pot to the table, and tastes like pure comfort with a slow, gochugaru burn. Ladle it over steamed rice on a cold evening and pour a cold Korean lager or barley tea alongside.

Gold Squash Locro
A thick, golden Peruvian stew that glows in the bowl — sweet winter squash melting into a fragrant broth heady with aji amarillo heat and the anise-dark whisper of huacatay. Creamy oat milk rounds every spoonful, whilst sweet corn, broad beans and peas make it a proper meal in itself. Brilliant for a midweek supper, and lovely alongside a crisp lager or a cold glass of chicha morada.
